Markland Mall Wraps-Up Renovations

Markland Mall has been around nearly five decades.

Significant renovations to Markland Mall in Kokomo are complete. Mall Manager Megan Earnest says improvements to the Howard County staple involve new entrances, upgraded restrooms and public seating.

WP Glimcher (NYSE: WPG), which is headquartered in Maryland and spun-off from Indianapolis-based Simon Property Group Inc. (NYSE: SPG), owns and manages Markland Mall. Its portfolio includes more than 120 properties.

Earnest says "we are excited to announce the completion of our much anticipated renovation project. Markland Mall has been a staple in this community for 47 years and the investment in this property signifies our vision for continued success."

Work also includes new carpeting, LED lighting and ceiling tiles.

The mall features anchors like Carson’s, Sears and Target and other recognizable retailers such as American Eagle Outfitters, Buckle, Foot Locker, Old Navy and Victoria’s Secret.
